But it's cheating You could make a game like that using no assets at all...

Someone should make a game made entirely out of one single asset...

I was thinking something along the same line of thought... if I was gonna enter, I was going to take some of the really chunky small sprites, maybe some of the 2-bit ones, and use them in ways that are just totally not meant to be used (without meddling with the assets themselves per the rule book). Like, I'd use something that totally isn't a ship as the main little ship guy in a shmup, for example.

actually, looking at these super small rpg tiles gave me a pretty good idea... I just... already have a project that I didn't want put on hold, *and* started another competition....

I am finally getting along with some game design... only about 3 and a half days left (about 80 hours), 0 lines of code done.
